Abstract: A portable device having fingerprint recognition function includes an image sensing unit, a microprocessor, a signal transmitting unit, a carrying member, a cleaning unit, and a housing. It is characterized that the cleaning unit removes residual fingerprint from the image sensing unit while the carrying member moves in and out of the housing. The portable device of the present invention is free from fingerprint residue and can reduce security risks.
Abstract: A printed circuit board having an electronic component embedded and a method making the same are disclosed. The printed circuit board has four electrically conductive layers and three core layers formed interleavedly. By properly removing a portion of the printed circuit board, the electronic component can be exposed. It has advantages that the exposed electronic component can be a CCD, CMOS or module. When the devices mentioned are embedded in the printed circuit board, one part of them can be exposed from the printed circuit board for normal functions. The overall thickness of the printed circuit board assembly can be minimized to meet the trend of compact design of electronic products.
Abstract: A method for mounting a chip on a printed circuit board (PCB) is disclosed. The method includes the steps of: providing a chip having a plurality of bonding pads and a PCB having a recess portion and a plurality of connectors; gluing the recess portion; placing the chip into the recess portion; and forming circuit patterns linking associated bonding pad and connector. A bottom of the recess portion is substantially flat and a shape of the recess portion is similar to that of the chip but large enough so that the chip can be fixed in the recess portion after being glued.

Abstract: A method for enhancing surface characteristics of a fingerprint sensor and a protective structure made according to the method are disclosed. The method includes the steps of: providing a fingerprint sensor having a number of detecting elements beneath a top surface of the fingerprint sensor, the detecting element is used to detect changes of capacitance over a portion of a finger; forming a metal mesh layer over the top surface of the fingerprint sensor, wherein metal lines of the metal mesh layer are formed periodically and each of them is located between two adjacent detecting elements; forming a passivation layer on the metal mesh layer to shape a concave-convex top surface; and filling concave portions of the passivation layer with a Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) material. A convex portion of the passivation layer is substantially above the metal line of the metal mesh layer.
Abstract: A silicon wafer having colored top side is disclosed in the present invention. The silicon wafer includes: a wafer; a first semi-conductor layer, formed on at least a portion of a top side of the wafer, having periodical structures to form a grating pattern, and a second semi-conductor layer, formed on the first semi-conductor layer with a bottom side substantially fully contacted with the periodical structures. The first semi-conductor layer and the second semi-conductor layer form a photonic crystal layer and work to reflect a predetermined wavelength range of incident visible light beams. The present invention provides a silicon wafer which can reflect specified color(s) from the surface facing external light beams. Therefore, dies from cutting the silicon wafer with functions to interact with external environment rather than packaged can have advantages to show some specified logo or trademark.

Abstract: A multi-function identification system is described in the present invention. The system includes an appliance and a number of keys. Under a registration process, the system allows multiple appliances to be controlled by a single key or an appliance can be controlled by different keys. The system can also allow users to set specified actions to be conducted after identification processes are completed. That satisfies requirements of a multi-function identification. Meanwhile, the key is a plug-and play and on-the-go product. It is desired that the key is a host used for other purpose.
Abstract: A portable fingerprint device is disclosed. The device includes an image sensing unit for capturing fingerprint images of a finger; a microprocessor, linked to the image sensing unit, for recording the fingerprint images of the finger, identifying the fingerprint images of the finger from a fingerprint database, receiving a command signal and transmitting a response signal; and a communication unit, connected to the microprocessor, for exchanging the command signal and the response signal between the microprocessor and a command device separated from the portable fingerprint device. The portable fingerprint device not only can identify fingerprints, but also can detect a sequence of finger motion, or “signature”, and use such information as part of the identification/authentication process.
